Hello, I've looked through this forum and I love that you have been helping all these people with their tengwar transcriptions. Will you please translate the following for me? I would like to place a tattoo on my side or along my spine.

Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me

I'd like them to be translated in Tengwar Annatar Italic. Thank you in advance!

For anni_sladurani : I made an exception for anni... Please understand that I can’t do that for everybody all the time. Thanks.No one can live for me […] (click on the link to access the transcription : a little big for a post !)

thank you so much, yes English was perfect. I had tried several programs and fonts but ran into difficulty and kept getting really strange results, thank you again for your time, patience and expertise

Hi, this is Gwenelf's friend. I am finally able to get online (I'm in Africa at the moment and have not a lot of internet access). Anyways, transcribing straight from the english word Pilgrim will work for me if you haven't already done it from the elvish. This is just a modification from gwenelf's post, so same request. Thanks

Hiya Isildilmë, just wondering if you saw my post and if you can give an idea of how long/how far down the waiting list i am? I am waiting on a tattoo...no major rush, but im really excited to get it done so....

p.s you are really talented and i love that you help people in your spare time!

I come from the Quenya translation thread, where Vea mi olori was kind enough to translate for me a phrase that I want tattooed.

Because of the meaning of the tattoo, it was my original intention to transcribe it myself, but as I thought about it, it seemed wiser to ask for help to get a more accurate transcription. Also, I have to admit, I kinda got overwhelmed and have no previous experience in Tengwar whatsoever, so I now come to you!

This is the quenya text:

Alá nái Óretya er Ná undulávë i huinessë Nyérëo

And this is my attempt:

I am certain that it’s wrong, I just don’t know where (or why). The tehtar rules are complicated, which makes me appreciate even more so what you do here for others.

I attempted transcription by hand and then just downloaded the first Tengwar font I found (which happened to be Tengwar Formal) and gave the “Insert Symbol” method a try. When you get around to the corrections, I’d appreciate it if you made them using either Tengwar Quenya Normal, Tengwar Annatar Cursive or Tengwar Annatar Cursive Bold. I’m not sure which font I’d like yet; since the tattoo is going to be a little big, I’m thinking Tengwar Annatar Cursive Bold would be the best choice, but we’ll see. I’m also not completely satisfied with the breaks in the sentence, but that’s something I’ll figure out after the Tengwar is correct.

Thanks for your comment, and yes, don't worry, I saw your post. I can't tell you when I'll be able to do it... everything depend on my variable free time. I'll soon post an up to date list of my pending requests.
